Re: Thread Usage of a specific process

Thanks Micheal , Appreciate your help.

I would not say that i understood all the things that you have 
mentioned. I will work on the things that you have mentioned and will 
probably get back to the mailing list for more help. This reply 
certainly gives me the direction in which i have move forward to achieve 
what i want.

Thanks
Jatin
